Triumph Spitfire 1500 O/D Single Rail Gearbox rebuild end float

Rebuilding this 1500 Single Rail FR O/D gearbox and trying to measure the end float. I was expecting bush, washer, bush and thrust washer arrangement but I seem to have bush, top hat bush and thrust washer. Is this because its a late gearbox or am I missing something? I dont think I can separate the tophat to be a washer and bush. Help!!IMG_20220114_221749.thumb.jpg.c4b72c7a14c05475d6e3975468363d9d.jpgIMG_20220114_221920.thumb.jpg.79ce2c9faecca398cee255381b249746.jpg

Can’t find a good diagram online (Canley’s link for the single rail mainshaft seems to be sending me back to the three rail mainshaft page @Works Spitfires?) The closest I have is from a Dolomite Haynes manual, looks like you should have: missing thrust washer, top hat bush, bush, thrust washer you have, circlip.
